With [[Clemantia]]'s help, [[Leela]] enters a slice of [[the Matrix]] to meet with [[Narvin]] and recounts how she overheard [[Rasmus (Dreadshade)|Rasmus]] discussing the weaponisation of the [[Bolt | With [[Clemantia]]'s help, [[Leela]] enters a slice of [[the Matrix]] to meet with [[Narvin]] and recounts how she overheard [[Rasmus (Dreadshade)|Rasmus]] discussing the weaponisation of the [[boltaric acid]] (or "Bolt") on [[Orrison]], a [[planet]] to which [[Eleventh General|the General]] subsequently chooses her to accompany him on a mission of [[diplomacy]] to acquire said weapon. Narvin, having entered the Matrix slice a week earlier than Leela, makes use of this information and travels to Orrison with [[Eris (Collaborators)|Eris]] to befriend [[Ferdinalli Arcando III|Prince Ferdi]] and form an alliance to keep his people neutral in the [[Last Great Time War|Time War]]. Ferdi is offended by Eris's impatience, however, and has him and Narvin moved to other rooms when Leela and the General arrive from [[Gallifrey]]. | ||
Leela warns Ferdi that the [[Time Lord]]s will take the Bolt by force if he does not form an alliance with them and, after he agrees, she learns from Narvin that he has attempted to form an alliance with both Gallifrey and [[The resistance (Deception)|the Resistance]]. The General attempts to call off a contingency plan he ordered [[Veklin]] to activate when Ferdi seemed resistant, but [[Ollistra (The Side of the Angels)|Ollistra]] and Rasmus intend to go through with an attack to acquire the entirety of the Bolt rather than the 50% that Ferdi has agreed to. Meanwhile, Eris reveals to Narvin that he has set charges which will destroy the entire network of Bolt and disarms them when Narvin convinces him that to do otherwise would be "Gallifreyan". | Leela warns Ferdi that the [[Time Lord]]s will take the Bolt by force if he does not form an alliance with them and, after he agrees, she learns from Narvin that he has attempted to form an alliance with both Gallifrey and [[The resistance (Deception)|the Resistance]].
